Player career

Mario Boyé, born on July 30, 1922 in the Argentine capital Buenos Aires , began his football career with the Boca Juniors . For the club from the slum La Boca , Boyé first visited the youth department from 1936 to 1941, before he was accepted into the club's first team in the last year. The young attacker was found there for nine years until 1949. During this time Mario Boyé brought it in the jersey of the Boca Juniors to a total of 190 league games in which he scored an outstanding 108 goals. In the wedding of city rival River Plate , Mario Boyé won the Argentine championship twice with the Boca Juniors. In the Primera División 1943 they were first with a lead of one point on defending champion River Plate. A year later, the team around players like Natalio Pescia , Jaime Sarlanga and the legendary Uruguayan Severino Varela managed to defend this title win. In the Primera División they left River Plate behind them again, this time Boca separated two points from the second from River. Two years later, in the 1946 season , an individual title for Mario Boyé was added to the two championship titles with the Boca Juniors. With 24 goals this season, he secured the title of best goalscorer of the season in Argentina.

In 1949 Mario Boyé left Boca Juniors and his Argentinian homeland and moved to the Italian Serie A at the traditional club CFC Genoa . In the Serie A 1949/50 Boyé behaved with eighteen inserts and twelve goals scored his club to reach twelfth place. After that, the Argentine striker's engagement in Italy ended after just one year and he returned to his homeland. After a contract with CD Los Millonarios had already been signed in Colombia's capital Bogotá , Boyé joined the reigning Argentinian champions racing club . From 1950 to 1953 Boyé stormed for the Racing Club and made a total of 84 league games in which he scored 33 goals. After the club had become champions under coach Guillermo Stábile in the year before Boyé's arrival, this title win was repeated two more times in the two following years, this time also Mario Boyé had his share. The 1950 season ended first with eight points ahead of CA Independiente , while a year later they finished the same, but this time only after winning the championship final against CA Banfield . The decisive goal for the championship, the 1-0 in the second leg against Banfield (first leg: 0-0) was scored by Mario Boyé one minute after the restart.

Mario Boyé stayed at the Racing Club until 1953 before moving to CA Huracán for one season . After twenty league games with seven goals, Boyé returned to the 1955 season where his career began two decades earlier, in the Boca Juniors' Bombonera Stadium . Here Boyé played another year, made eighteen league games with five goals, and finally ended his football career in 1955 at the age of 33 in his home club's shirt.

After the end of his active career as a soccer player, Mario Boyé opened the Pizzeria La Guitarrita in Buenos Aires together with René Pontoni , a long-time successful attacker of CA San Lorenzo de Almagro and often competitor Boyé in this role . After Pontoni's early death in 1983, Boyé continued to run the business alone for nine years before he died on July 21, 1992, a good week before his seventieth birthday. Pontoni's grandson still runs the pizzeria in Buenos Aires today.
